How a survey works
We inspect vessels and verify they meet the standard.
Every KI survey covers four things: the hull, the machinery, the safety gear, and the paperwork that clears your vessel to work. You get a clear report you can act on.

Inspection layers
One vessel, four checks.
The survey breaks the vessel into working layers, then turns each finding into a report the operator can act on.
“We check it ourselves before we sign.”
